Went to Tenya for lunch.
Tenya is a well-known chain restaurant that specializes in ten-don (tempura bowl).
The cheapest menu is only 500yen.
Tenya is a good place for a quick cheap lunch in the expensive Tokyo.

But today, I ordered their seasonal menu. A bit pricy compare to other menu but what they have inside the bowl is worth the price.

松茸ぎんなん天丼 Matsutake Ginnan Tendon ( Seasonal menu) for 830yen
In the bowl:
2pcs of Matsutake mushroom
1 pc of Maitake mushroom
1 pcs of Kinoko mushroom
1 prawn
1 Ginnan ( Gingko) and Mitsuba Kakiage
But this meal is 952kcal. Huhu! ( A day that I forgot about calories)

For those who dont know what Matsutake is: (King of mushroom??!!)

( Though simple to harvest, Matsutake are hard to find, causing the price to be very high.)
